Niverville Fair & Golf Tournament

Hey everyone,

The Niverville Fair was great. I don't know about you, but I really enjoyed it. Thanks Roger (father-in-law) for bringing out Island Breeze to perform on the YFC stage. Thanks Kristen and Bethany (sisters) who put the Island Breeze/Drop-in/Weird Moustache Man float together. Thanks Dad (Valleywest Landscaping Ltd. owner) for driving the float, just like the good ol' Maranatha float days. Thanks to all the peeps who rode on the float or unicycled/skateboarded around the float, Josiah, Zach, Riley, Brent, Seaver, Jeremy, Chris, Ben, Roger, etc. Thanks to the fair committee, especially Elaine Krahn and Bruce Neufeld for providing YFC with a stage and sound equipment. Thanks to our sound guy, Vince Taylor (head of lighting at the MTS Centre) for excellent sound. Thanks to Rory and Greg for setting everything up on the stage. Thanks to Out of Darkness for a killer show and for letting me use your drums, Andrew. Thanks to Riley(dij. master) who played with Guerilla Warfare. Thanks to everyone who setup and took down the stage equipment, Josiah, David, Chris, Ben, etc. Thanks to Zach (unicyclist extraordinaire) for filming Eccletomania.

Hope everyone enjoyed Ecclectomania and the float featuring Island Breeze. In case you missed our children's feature on the Sunday service, we did a modern version of the Good Samaritan story and called it the Good Steinbacher story. Thanks to Gord, Sammy, the ninjas, desperados, Hannah Montana, Tony Hawk and the Good Steinbacher for helping us make the story come to life.

And now for something completely different...

The 2009 Niverville YFC Golf Tournament was a hit this year. It went very smooth. Thanks to Melissa, our fearless volunteer who sat in the blazing sun at one of the prize holes all day. Thanks to Ed Dale and Carl Fast for making my day a bit more exciting by getting the closest to the pin on the 2010 Mustang hole-in-one hole. Thanks to all the golfers, especially Tim, Colette, Henry, Ed and last but definitely not least...Gary, Brian, Chris and Sherwood.

The day was perfect (it started pouring just as we got back to the drop-in after the tournament, praise God). The food was great. Thanks to the drop-in teens who finished off the leftover ribs (Drew). And having the support of a richly blessed community is priceless.

Thank you everyone and have a great summer.
